little Casino the daughter of Flv-nn

Little Casino, the daughter of Fly-up-
the Greek, of the Uncompahgres, wore
the gable end of an "a" tent, trimmed
with red flannel rosettes, it had We
neered panels and the new and ex-
tremely swell sleeves, blown up above
the elbow aud tight the rest of
the way, in which, as she said in her
naive way, they resembled her father,
who was tight half the time. Little
Casino was the life of the party, and it
would be hard to opine anything more
charming than her bright and CHEEKY
way of telling a funny story, which
convulsed her audience while she
quietly completed fractional flush and
took no lie the long-delayed jack pot
TO her reedy father. She is an intel
lectual exotic of which the Uncom-
pahgres may well be proud, and is also
one of those rare productions of nature
never at loss for something to write
in an autograph album. In the album
of a young warrior of the Third Ute
Infantry she has written: I'm friend
ships great fruitage, please regard me
as your huckleberry, Little Casino"
Our genial townsman, William II.
Colorow, is home again, after pro-
longed hunting and camping trip,
during which he was attacked and
cordially shot at by group of gentle
men who came to serve a writ of
replevin on him. Colonel ColorOw does
not know exactly what the writ of
repleVin is for, unless it be for the
purpose of accommodating mileage for
the sheriff. Few were killed during
the engagement except small
pappoOse belonging to Mr.. and Mrs.

A late copy of a New York paper al
ludes to this as "a furious engagement,
after which the Indians carried off their
d .ad according to their CUSTOM" Mr..
Mrs. Roll-on-Silver-M Moon were
Verned against taking the baby with
them on an extended camping trip, but
tney seemed to think that it would be
perfectly safe, as the child was only
seven weeks old. and could not have in
Cured the hostility of the War Depart
ment. This was not improbable at all,
for according TO the records, it takes
from nine to eleven weeks to officially
irritate the War Department. The
little one now lies at the wigwam of its
afflicted parents on CaVyO Street, and
certainly does not look as though it
Guild have stood out so long against the
sheriff and his posse.
Mrs. Rol1-on-Silver-M Moon has pain
full bullet wound IN the shoulder. She
feels so grieved about the loss of Little
Cholera Infantum, that she does not
make much fuss over her injury. The
funeral of the little one will take place
this evening from its late residence, and
friends of the parents are cordially in
vited to come and participate. Wailing
Will begin promptly at shutdown.

summer jaunt IN the Little Big Horn

locked grasshoppers. As soon as they
get thoroughly rested they will an
nounce select locust. grasshopper and
cricket feed at their home, during
which a celebrated band from Staten
Island ferry will oblige with a new Sc
lection known as The Cricket on the

Major Santee, who is now at home
repairing the roof of his Gothic tepee,
which was so damaged by the recent
storms that it allowed hail, rain and
horned cattle to penetrate his apart
ments at all times Of the day and night,
says that in the late great Ute war
erybody wanted to fight except the
Indians and the War Department. He
believes that no Indian outbreak
can be regarded as success
without the hearty co operation and
goo spec of the government and a
QLo UNI of Indians who are will
ing to break out into open hostility.
Major Santee lost niece during the
rec Mt encounter. She was not hostile
to any one, but was respected by all
and will now cast gloom. She had no
hard feelings towards the sheriff or any
one of his posse, and had never met
them before. She was very plain in ap-
pearance, and this was her first engage
ment. The sheriff now claims that he
thought she was reaching for her gun,
whereas it appears that she was making
a wild grab for her Indian trail.
Major Santee says that he hopes it
will be many long day before the
sheriff organizes another Ute outbreak
and compels the Utes to come and
bring their families. He says that
human life here is now so cheap,
especially the red style of human life,
that sometimes he is almost tempted to
steal 100000 and go to New York,
where he will be safe. BILL NYE.
